Nuovi ritrovamenti di Troglopedetes Ruffoi Delamare Deboutteville (Collembola, Paronellidae)

Abstract

En
New findings of Troglopedetes ruffoi Delamare-Deboutteville 1951 from the Castellana cave (Apulia) allowed us to describe some characters not previously considered. The presence of large sensory areas on the antennomeres and some characters of the chaetotaxy were studied. Some biogeographical features of Troglopedetes ru f f o i and the other congeneric species were discussed in the light of the recent revisions of the genus.
